I love my 6.2L Taxi - yep, even more than the two skylines I have had. And the Cosmo, and the Rx7 he he

Thought someone from this section may know the answer ?? My FJ20ET S12 Project is near completion and I have a couple of questions relating to sourcing bits. 1) cam cover plugs for ignition leads ?? - The rubber boot things - Does anyone know where to get these ? What the P/N is or what an equivalent would be ? Failing that - a P/N for the full set of leads with the plug/cover things ?? Also where to get these ?? Which shops would have them ? 2) The Half moon rubbers (end of cams) on the cam cover - I'v been told that you can get alloy half moons instead of the rubber ones ?? Where Where Where ?? Cheers for that !

Richard - nice work. I'd really like to hear more about the reasons behind rebuilding a brand new crate motor - rather than rebuilding a good condition second hand one or even the original tired one. It just seems to be me a shame to rebuild a motor that doesn't need rebuilding. Obviously with the crate motor - you are getting everything new, so less risky - but if you are changing most things anyway.... It's an interesting way of doing it - and something I had never thought of -- I guess if the crate motor is not much more moolah than a second hand one - then yeah, makes sense. I also guess there would be a lot of time (labour) spend on getting the old motor to exactly new spec. Richard - this project would have been a ball to do - congrats & well done. Modifying cars is sooooo much fun - and soooo rewarding (when things go right... ha ha)

How negotiable are you mate ? Might be a good addition for the S12. /edit Actually - don't answer that - I don't need it........ my addiction just kicked in again..

I admit it - yes. /steps out to car modifiers anonymous.

Should be a fun little car when the fark it is finished :-) Should get a little over 200kw at the wheels. On a 1000 kgs car that will be fun With the new suspension all round , it should handle like a cart With the R33 front brakes and the drums converted to R31 discs at the rear, it should pull up real good With the locker differ, should go real well sideways and also get power down for drags. A good all round car. I started a thread a few year back - on best performance car under $10K, modified or un-modified. And because I just love and can't help myself tinkering, I set a bit of a goal and project to build a good cheap all rounder. So far the S12 project has been that goal. It will be real nice to test the fruit of people's labour and all this waiting for shit to happen.

Ha ha - Fair call - Nope, well not for a couple of minutes anyway.

No doubt a nice Skyline. A bit like my Nizpro Prototype GTX-S12-200RSX

Status update: FJ is all tuned and running well - pulls like a $20 whore. 2nd gear on the FJ box is farked - so putting in a RB25DET box Got an H190 Detroit locker diff centre ($700) - it's off at the diff place now getting all the loadings and sh1t right One piece tail shaft going in due to the new box R31 read disc conversion is being done at the same time Gauges are all mounted and look hot - Got Wideband 02 (AEM) also connected up to the Haltech for closed loop. Also Liquid filled Boost and Oil Pressure (autometer) - along with Autogauge stepper for Fuel Pressure, Water and Oil Temp - they are all mounted where the stereo used to be - The head unit has been relocated to the clove box The buddy club wheels are off - just slightly wrong offset after the front S13 conversion - so I have a set of 16" Momos on now -with Falken semi slicks. Modified an S13 front strut brace and put that on too. What else - Oh yeah -all new wheel bearing on the rear. Boy this car has had the lot done to it. There are no original parts in the driveline at all - everything is new from the rear brakes, thru to diff, tailshaft, gearbox, and engine. This thing is going to hammer ! ! I know I keep promising pics - and will have them up soon ! Cheers,

Ah - the memories

Don't paint them - get them powder coated - much better. And +1 for Stewart Wilkins Motorsport....

Sux for the young Korean bloke who bought it from me - Yeah.

And loving it

Got a phone call today from a friend who saw my old Cosmo on the side of the road at Campsie - Dead. Dunno if it got stolen or the young fella who bought it came unstuck. Front bar and intercooler all over the road Anyone see this ?? Rego COZ-20B

I know someone who would - twice.....

You watch - 2rismo will sell his car just after he finishes it - The best of us do that you know. The S12 will be a ball tearer - much more fun than the Cosmo. Might be faster than the V8 too

$ 200 ??

Stop whoring and lets talk about how my $5000 FJ powered Gazelle is gonna kick all your lame ass SKyline asses

Car started on the weekend - You beauty. Just need a 3 bar MAP sensor now. Should be driving around in it this week - Cool - now I can get back into some racing & events.

THESE ARE SOLD
